You have all played a significant part in my development of loving. As a result, my life has been rich and full, so I leave feeling very grateful.

Your responses to the events of life are more important than the events themselves.

The full life is filled with vulnerability, not defense. You face whatever feeling there is.

My dream is to make families a place where adults with high self esteem can develop. I think we have reached a point where if we don't get busy on dreams of this sort, our end is in sight. We need a world that is as good for human beings as it is for technology.

Problems are not the problem; coping is the problem.

I have talked about choosing rather than acting from compulsion. When you feel that you have to live according to someone else's direction or live so that you never disappoint or hurt anybody, then your life is a continual assessment of whether or not you please other people.

Once a human being has arrived on this earth, communication is the largest single factor determining what kinds of relationships he makes with others and what happens to him in the world about him.
